Burning Blue Soul

I was sittin' on the window seal
& staring at the moon
Whistling a tune
That really moved me (yeah, yeah, yeah)

"i have no future, for i've had no past
I'm just sittin' here, pullin' arrows
- out of my heart.t.t".

History repeats itself,
Within the realms of - my inexperience
It's the laughter in her eyes, that makes me cry,
I'm too tired to eat,
Too lazy to die
See me dwindle, watch me dwell,
In my plastic corner, in my plastic world

When spring comes around & the ice runs away,
& the sun hits the top of our heads,
Then the dormant desires, explode into life,
& teh body demands to be fed.

Whispering sadness, like a mild form of madness,
Or a line from a meaningful song,
Turn your eyes to the lord,
But the churches are empty,
They're is now no escape from your longing.

Things are gonna start getting good,
...you hear them call,
You captured the unspoken feelings of my heart,
... which gave me a start.
I know i'm nowhere near perfection
...i'm pointing in the wrong direction
All i ever seem to do is sit here playing
Around with this stupid guitar!!!

I've got a million ants under my skin,
They're all digging a hole where the rain
- can't get in.

My world comes out
When the sun disappears
But my blood is turning sour with
- insect fear.

I've got a million 'beatles' under my skin,
They're all digging a hole where the rain
- can't get at 'em.
My blood will come out,
When the earth disappears
& my girl will turn to flour with insect fear.
Why are you forever - under the weather,
You're at an age - where you should
Be feeling good.
But when you hide in your bed,
& look in your head,
You find you've gone deeper than
You should -
It could be your shallowness
Is your strength -

I used to be indecisive
But now... i'm not so sure
There's little sign of feeling
When you look into their eyes.
The politicians sighing, that -
"nothing's going wrong in our world tonight -
Nothing... (we don't understand)"

There's no point in speaking -
"help me if you can"
Is this a retribution
To compensate for a lack of understanding.
I think we should pretend
That nothing's going wrong in our world tonight,
Nothing - (we don't understand)
& i'm doing the best that i can.

Am i locked up forever, in a picture of despair,
I've put my spirit on to paper & into words
I've opened my eyes & i've realised
- who i really am.

I thought i loved you, but i think i must be wrong
There's another feeling in my heart
This sense of pride, is silencing my sorrow,
I find it hard to come alive
When i'm hollowed out -
From the inside:-

"the sky is glowing with anticipation,
& casts a shadow across the nation
A dust is rising from the heat of the sun
I'm drinking... for the thirst to come.

But i am, contemplating oneness,
Summer's here... but i hardly noticed.
There's no reason to be singing
There's no reason to be here at all...

Occupation, i don't have one
I'd lie in bed, until the cows come,
I'm snowed up, inside my window,
Buried in sand up to my elbows

But i am, contemplating oneness,
Summer's here... but i hardly noticed.
There's no reason to be singing
There's no reason to be here at all...

World wars & the fate of nations
The sky is glowing with anticipation
I'm wasting away with worry
& my heart just skipped a beat
But then again...

I felt much calmer
I opened up a can of instant karma
A yoga posture for self awareness
& the devil rides out of
Your life!!!
